By choosing chairs as a model, game becomes emblematic, and it is here in this absence of human being that a certain metaphysical aura slips into the picture. It isn’t abstraction or escape from a reality which is always present, just because of the absence of human figure. Fiction of a landscape? Of a world we enter like shadows, of which only the image is left, land where art, poetry and painting are the only truth, a knowledge, a dialogue of soul, maybe, the only truth our anxiety, our presence of human beings nare reflected in, memories of a journey, moments of light.
(Aligi Sassu, An imagined colour, La Nuova Albertina, Turin 3-30 April 1975)
